Quorum Sensing Controls Adaptive Immunity through the Regulation of Multiple CRISPR-Cas Systems

Bacteria commonly exist in high cell density populations, making them prone to viral predation and horizontal gene transfer (HGT) through transformation and conjugation. To combat these invaders, bacteria possess an arsenal of defenses, such as CRISPR-Cas adaptive immunity. Many bacterial population...
